Online approaches that fit daily life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck in anxiety or avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and building new coping skills for stress, depression, and relationship problems. Client-centered work emphasizes a respectful, listening approach so the person sets the pace and the goals.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Heather will talk with each person about goals, try strategies in session, and adjust methods based on what helps most. The aim is to find tools that feel useful and fit each person’s life and values.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face-to-face when schedules allow. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or parenting routines while using evidence-informed approaches.
